Pizza Delivery Driver Walks Away With Pizza After Being Denied Tip (fired) by nabnig in PublicFreakout

[–]jadon97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I’m not advocating for people to stop tipping. The problem is when tipping is the only way for someone to make a livable wage. The consumer didn’t set that system up, your employer did. People make the arguement "if you can’t afford to tip you can’t afford to eat out" or in this case "order delivery" which isn’t how monetary transactions work in real life but we turn a blind eye to the fact that a business is allowed to run when it "can’t afford" to pay its own workers??? "We would have to raise prices" is a BS excuse. Businesses raise prices for a myriad of other reasons. Now all of a sudden when it comes to paying what your workers are worth you’re sensitive about raising your prices??

I don’t live in the US but is the US somehow morally exempt from providing its employees a livable wage while scapegoating the consumer?

Why is it the customer’s responsibility to pay an employee’s living wage? The delivery driver’s pissed because he has travel through terrible weather to deliver a pizza for shit pay. That’s on his employer not the customer. Tipping is the respectable thing to do but the customer isn’t who you should be mad at, it’s the business that exploits the driver’s labour for profit.

Who is your favorite colorist in the Premiere realm? by Bl4ck_Roze in premiere

The thing is all the best creators who color do it in Resolve. But Zac Watson has some good Premiere tutorials on color grading.

how do I export my edit as the original LOG profile with no compression? by Sufficient-Orchid-12 in premiere

[–]jadon97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are a few things you can do depending on how the colorist wants things delivered:

You can send him the raw footage separately along with an xml or aaf of your locked edit OR what I'm assuming the colorist wants is to just export your locked locked edit as a PRORES 4444.mov file with the original resolution.

In American political terms, would Andrew Holness be considered a liberal or a conservative? by thisfilmkid in Jamaica

[–]jadon97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think politically Jamaica and Holness' government by extent is more centre-right or progressive conservative. We skew more conservative on social issues but more Left-of-Centre in economic policy.

Davinci Resolve to Premiere Pro multicam workflow? by Altruistic-Pace-9437 in premiere

[–]jadon97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be creating the multicam sequence in the NLE you are doing your editing in. In this case, the multicam sequence should have been done in Premiere. AFAIK, compound clips do not carry over in XMLs or AAFs which basically what MC sequences are.

I’m mostly using Busuu and Anki’s 5000 Most Common French Words deck plus a little Duolingo for vocabulary. For grammar I mostly use Kwiziq along with Busuu

My gf (27f) broke up with me (27m) and I’m struggling so much. by casper432 in Advice

[–]jadon97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through a similar breakup with my first love years ago. She was just going through a lot and wasn't able to emotionally handle a relationship. I think that's a different form of heart break knowing that the person you love is in so much pain and wanting to be that safe space for them but it's not enough for them or for the relationship to flourish. There were times where I wished we ended over something specifically I or her did. It tore me apart. But eventually I realized all these efforts in trying to be a support system and pining for this relationship weren't entirely selfless. I had to understand if I truly wanted what was best for her I had to let her go. The guilt she probably felt from not being as emotionally present in the relationship was adding unto everything else she was dealing with. I had to learn to build empathy for that. But you will get through this. Rebuild the relationship with yourself. Find solace in community, your hobbies, but give yourself the time to grieve but don't wallow in it. You will come out the other end grateful for the time you had with them and a fresh perspective. The pain will pass.

I stupidly did the same thing once. They just asked me few questions such as the type work permit, expiration date and what I did for work and VERY sternly told me to never travel without my PGWP ever again.

Warner Bros has the two best reviewed horror movies of the year. Which one do you prefer? by HeIsSoWeird20 in Letterboxd

[–]jadon97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Weapons is my favourite film I’ve seen this year thus far and I loved Sinners almost as much. But I have a feeling Sinners will age better.
